At this downtown Lafayette bar, the windows are blacked out and you'll need a code to get in


The passcode and blacked out windows are security measures, the speakeasy theme came later….

Speakeasies are like Fight Club.

It’s not a real speakeasy. Owner already said this is going to be the worst kept secret in town

Will likely be great until the Columbia / trucker hat crowd show up.

is it still thriving like it was 20 years ago?

Amanda Scott’s, Stan’s, Antlers, Roothogs, Club 410, Jefferson St pub were all great places and always busy.

Yea I wonder if they will enforce a dress code. Because the passcode isn’t going to be keeping anyone out. I’m really confused about what the security angle here is.

It’s definitely trending toward an older crowd (30+ year olds), or at least that’s how it feels to me. Quite a few good restaurants and spots like Wild Child Wines, and this new place as drinking spots for non-college aged people.

Seems like bad business to try and keep people out

That’s the thing. It won’t keep people out. I don’t understand why they think that’s a great idea for safety.

The experience is mostly what’s for sale. I’d protect that at all costs.
